About Julie
Materials nerd with a craft certificate and a bachelor's degree.
I'm a materials nerd. I hold a Danish craft certificate (svendebrev) as an upholsterer and a Bachelor of Textile, Design and Communication — eight years of training in total, plus many more years of practical studio work.
My focus is to bring out the lines of a piece through beautiful textiles. Weave, texture and colour are everything — and that's the part of the craft I love.

What clients say.
“Julie is a wonderful craftsperson. My Wegner chair was given new life — meticulously done, beautiful fabric, and a price I could understand.”
“Quick, clear communication. My sofa came back like new after three weeks.”
“I had custom cushions made for our dining bench. Perfect fit, lovely linen.”
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
What does reupholstery cost?
It depends on the piece's size, construction and fabric. Send a photo and short description and I'll give you an estimate. Most jobs land between DKK 1,500 and 12,000.
How long does it take?
Typically about 3 weeks from drop-off to ready. Larger projects can take longer — we agree on that up front.
Do you pick up and deliver in Copenhagen?
Yes, I can usually arrange transport in Copenhagen for a small fee. Call and we'll find a solution.
Do you upholster designer classics like Wegner and Jacobsen?
Yes. I have experience with Wegner (CH24, CH88, the Y-chair), Jacobsen (Series 7, Swan, Egg), Mogensen, Kjærholm, Kaare Klint, Finn Juhl and more.
Which textiles do you work with?
I keep over 100 samples in the studio from Kvadrat, Gabriel, Romo, Dedar and others. I advise on durability, abrasion resistance (Martindale) and style.
Can you reupholster an IKEA cushion?
Yes. Smaller jobs like IKEA cushions, dining-chair seats and headboards — I do those too. No job is too small.
What is Custom Cover?
A hand-sewn rain cover for the cargo bike (typically Christiania) — produced locally in Nørrebro together with sailmaker Siv. Read more on the Custom Cover page.
